A collection of 4 magnets featuring vintage magic posters.
Magic shows, séances, pantomimes, and circus acts were popular forms of entertainment during the Victorian and Edwardian eras, when a growing middle class had more time and money for leisure activities, and a rapidly changing world brought new wonders and terrors to the public's imagination.
Magic show advertisements are pivotal in the history of posters. Known for their complex and narrative-driven compositions, they hold a mystique still to this day.
